I slide the phone over to my mother and she grabs, glanc- ing down I watch her eyes move across the message and she
chuckles.
With a sigh she lifts her gaze to mine. “This will make things worse, anger him. He will retaliate.” she tells me and I shrug,
uncaring. He made his bed now he gets to roll around in it, hopefully the damn sheets strangle some sense into him.
“And by then, I will have him by the balls along with every Alpha in that city.” I tell her and she raises, and eyebrow at
“And do you plan on doing that?” she questions.
“Have you forgotten who was the city account mother? I know all their shady trades and it won’t be hard to find Axton’ s. I just
need space to dig it up and I can’t do that with him. breathing down my neck.”
“But you haven’t got the pack back yet from your father. If Axton retailaites we are no match for him.” She reminds me.
“I will have the pack. I’ll make sure of it. I will head into the City tomorrow and check some things out. Dad either stands down or
I take him down with the rest of them. That City be- longed to your family, my family. So I am going to remind them who really
owns it. And it is not Alpha Derrick or Alpha Axton. But Alpha Bardot.” I tell her, grabbing the bottle and walking toward the stairs.
“Oh this is the most excitement I have had since I tortured the bastard that murdered my mother,” Sondra chuffs making me stop
on the steps. I turn to give her a questioning look.
Mom stared at her in utter horror. “One of Floyde’ s goons?” I ask.
“Nah, they wouldn’t have dared. No, my father. Right old prick he was. Wasn’t so tough with his limbs removed and no longer
able to throw a punch,” she tells us so casually I can only blink at her.
“Nah, Floyde was scary, I was just his sidekick,” she shrugs, grabbing her tea and moving to her rocking chair out. the front. We
watch her slip outside and my mother turns to look at me.
“I don’t know if I am impressed, disgusted or terrified of her sometimes.” She chuckles and I have to agree. Those hor- rors we
heard of in packs but a human woman for some rea- son sounded more horrifying for some reason..
Shaking my head, I climb the stairs heading back to my room while mindlinking the women that dinner will be in an hour.
Entering the room, Axton snatches the bottle off me. “What took you so long, Bane is now crying,” I move toward the crib
retrieving him and giving him my breast. I move to sit on the chaise in the corner. Watching Axton, he feeds Kyan with one hand
while turning his attention back to his phone. After about half an hour I hear the women starting to set up for dinner.
“What are they doing?” Axton questions.
“We eat together every night. You’re welcome to join us if you can drop your aura.” I tell him.
“No, I’ll stay here.” he tells me and I inhale deeply, remind- ing myself he will be gone soon when a knock sounds on the door.
The door pushes open and Axton growls. The sound cuts off when Luke sticks his head in.
“Sorry, I thought you were someone else,” he tells Luke.
“Marco is downstairs, he got here early.” Luke mindlinks me before speaking.
“Everyone is setting up, and some car is down the drive- way,” he says and I play dumb my brows furrow.
Axton looks at me as Luke slips back out. “Are you ex- pecting someone?” I shake my head.
“Nope, I will go check it out.” I tell him, laying down Bane next to Kyan. Yet before I can turn around Axton is already gone. I
chuckle before following downstairs.
I check the women before walking halfway down the driveway, the women all watching as Axton approaches the car and I hear
armed council guards, their tranquilizers and Wolfsbane dart guns aimed at him. Marco gets out of the car and shakes his head.
“Elena!” Axton growls at me as I approach. “Marco,” I ac- knowledge ignoring Axton. Marco comes over and pecks my cheek and
Axton gapes at me.
“I hoped you wouldn’t be foolish enough, Alpha Axton.” Marco says, shaking his head.
“You got here early.” I tell him.
“Vampire attacks in the city, was here investigating anoth- er crime scene but in town,” he tells me.
“In town?” Marco nods.
“Yes, so you and women need to keep a lookout. Got the shopkeeper Taylor this afternoon,” Marco tells me and my stomach
sinks. Fuck!
“Marco, call them off, this is ridiculous. She is my mate!” Axton snarls, drawing our attention to him.
“You breached, she is well within her rights to have you removed.” Axton growls.
“You would ruin our business relationships over an in- fringement!”
“For family, yes. Now arrest him.”
“Family?” Marco groans, turning to him.
“Sondra, she is my sister in-law. Elena, here is her carer and now family. So yes Axton if I have to choose sides, I choose hers.” I
smirk and raise an eyebrow at Axton. He growls and curses. The council guards move in.
“No fucking need, I will come willingly.” Axton snarls, he stomps toward the car and opens the passenger seat door before
stopping.
“You are making a mistake, Elena.”
“Only mistake I made Axton was letting you think you can walk all over me. You’ll learn though,” I tell him and he laughs.
“We’ll see.” he laughs climbing into Marco’s car.
“Yes, he will.” Marco chuckles, sending me a wink. He flags his men to stand down and walks back to the car while I turn back
around and head back to my pack.
